Roundabout
A few updates back, when editing roundabouts instructions, the forced TTS available for edition when changing to Turn Left or Turn Right changed from "on the roundabout turn left" & "on the roundabout turn right" to "in 50 meters turn left" & "in 50 meters turn right", leaving left off the information "on the roundabout".
Could you consider improving that information for TTS "lovers" or "needers" and add again "on the roundabout" TTS to the string?
Thank you

Manually set Speeds for different vehicle setups
I use Waze to drive a jeep, jeep & trailer, bus and trucks.
Legally towing, bus & truck must travel at lower speeds in the cars and jeeps.
It would be really helpful if we could:
1) create different vehicle profiles for the same driver and switch between them.
2) Have the option to be able to manually input the max speeds for vehicle profile eg National roads in Ireland are 80km for bus, truck and towing and 100km for bus and 90km for truck and towing on motorways. This would be more for calculating journey times than speed warnings as most trucks and buses would have speed limiters but the journey time can be very misleading.
3) Set an average speed estimate as a base. Example if I'm towing horses and the route is not a big straight road, while the legal speed limit might be 80km, I know I'm going to be not getting anywhere near that so an option for estimate average time could be really useful to calculate journey times. Or yesterday, I drove a tour group to Connemara and while I knew the road, I hadn't driven it with a bus and the journey time was 20-25min longer than predicted. Knowing more accurate journey times would be fantastic to plan proper breaks for the the tacho.
4) may not be feasible but parking for bus / coaches / trucks / trailers would be super helpful as well.
These should be relatively easy to implement. Of course details like sharp turns, low bridges etc and unsuitable routes would be really helpful also but more difficult to implement and I still wouldn't drive a route I didn't know from an app, I'd ask another driver. However planning journey times would be really helpful to have better estimates.
Thanks 🙏🏻

Make ETA and Remaining Time always visible when using Android Auto
Some alerts are shown over the ETA and remaining time box.
For me it is more important to have the ETA and remaining time always visible than receiving some of these alerts.
Maybe the ETA box could squeeze to the bottom of the screen when the alerts are shown.
It is very practical to have this information always visible when receiving a call or checking if it is possible to wait to use a better bathroom ahead on the road.4 votes -
UI Problem: Speed camera\police alert covers the speed limit
I was using Waze in horizontal mode last night - the speed limit and my current speed were displayed near the bottom of the screen in the middle horizontally. I noticed that when alerts such as Police ahead or Speed Camera in x feet were displayed the notification box covers key bits of the screen such as your current speed, the speed limit and your precise location.
I think either the UI needs to shift up when the alerts are displayed, or the alert box needs to be constrained to one side of the screen.
I did take a screen shot but it does not appear to be possible to attach that to this forum.

Don’t change the route automatically during trip navigation
I don’t want Waze to change the route automatically without my permission after I chose at the beginning. It happens I choose a ruote and then, just for avoiding few minutes of traffic, I have to pay more highway and more fuel for longer route. I want Waze ask for me permission to change, despite a simple pop up “better route found” in which I can only choose yes, and if I don’t reply yes (of course I m driving) Waze change it automatically. Please make a pop up where if I dont say “yes change route” the route is not changed automatically. Otherwise why I chose at the beginning if the route is changed without my permission? Thanks

The inability to repeat directions is a major flaw of Waze.
A button for repeating directions is critical. Please revise the software.

put in little icons to tell where the traffic lights are so we know exactly where we are turning!
kind of like apple maps, tell us where the traffic lights are so we have a better understanding of the map!

No alerting caps
Waze does not alert at all reported fixed phone / police cameras because of caps on alerts on regularly travelled roads exposing drivers who forget about cameras to fines. This is confirmed by by WAZE's team: "This means that you may not get alerted about everything on your route". There is no option to set to 'always alert'. Please add the option of full and reduced alerting.

Hide “Work” shortcut in CarPlay when not set
When selecting the magnifying glass for an address in Waze on CarPlay, the first two options are the Home and Work shortcuts/favorites, which appear regardless if they have been setup in the app or not. This request is to hide either or both if there is not an address assigned (or have an option to hide them altogether).

Correção balões
os balões com nomes das ruas e demais ícones que aparecem no mapa durante navegação dão muito inconvenientes. Complicam muitíssimo a visual e ainda mais quando estamos dirigindo. os cartaz com nomes e indicações são enormes de acordo às escalas. os balões deveriam ser opcionais, poder tirar dentro das configurações personalizáveis, assim como outras visualizações de ícones e indicações. mais versátil por favor.

Option to Change vehicle to a van as national speed limits are different compared to cars
There needs to be an option to have a Van or lorry as the national speed limits are different. I use Waze everyday for my commute to work and there’s three different national speed limits that alternate along my journey.

"Multi-Stop Route Support for Delivery Drivers and Professionals"
I suggest adding a feature to Waze that allows users to input multiple addresses (e.g., 10 or more, as many as the user needs) and get the most optimal route connecting all those points. Currently, Waze only supports adding one intermediate stop, which isn’t enough for delivery drivers or people who need to navigate between several destinations in a day, like within a city. For example, a delivery person could enter 10 different addresses in advance, and Waze would calculate the fastest and most efficient route to visit them all.
Why is this important?Saves time and money for delivery drivers and professionals who rely on daily navigation.Makes Waze more competitive against other apps that offer multi-stop route planning but lack Waze’s real-time traffic updates.Enhances the user experience for a large community of drivers who need more flexibility in their navigation.
I’d love your support for this idea – it could help so many people and make Waze the most useful navigation app out there!I suggest adding a feature to Waze that allows users to input multiple addresses (e.g., 10 or more, as many as the user needs) and get the most optimal route connecting all those points.
